Imam (Sheikh Abubakar Jibrin) Arrested For Defacing Jonathan's Poster. by RICHIEBOI1(m): 5:10pm On Mar 02, 2011 |
Sokoto – Sokoto State Police Command has arrested the Chief Imam of the Farfaru Juma’at Mosque, Sokoto, Sheikh Abubakar Jibrin, for allegedly defacing the posters of the PDP presidential candidate, Dr Goodluck Jonathan. Spokesperson of the Police Command, ASP Al-Mustapha Sani, disclosed this to newsmen in Sokoto Tuesday. According to him, the Chief Imam was arrested at a roundabout while he was using black paint to deface President Jonathan’s posters by policemen on patrol. “The renowned Islamic cleric was arrested by our men on patrol using black paint to deface the posters of President Goodluck Jonathan and Alhaji Namadi Sambo at some roundabouts in Sokoto metropolis at around 5 pm on February, 28. “He was arrested along with his two sons, his driver and a domestic aide. They have all been transferred to the Force CID, Abuja, today (Tuesday),” Sani said. He advised the people of the state to continue to be law abiding, adding that “only the use of ballot papers to either vote in or vote out candidates were lawful.” http://www.vanguardngr.com/2011/03/police-arrest-cleric-4-others-for-defacing-jonathans-posters/ 1 Like

Re: Imam (Sheikh Abubakar Jibrin) Arrested For Defacing Jonathan's Poster. by Kilode1: 7:50pm On Mar 02, 2011 |
kilode?! ]they were also suspected of inciting dislike for Jonathan you dey vex? As you can clearly read from my earlier quote above, I was speaking specifically about the "inciting dislike" statement. I even placed it in bold. I reserve the right to "incite dislike" for a politician I dislike, it is not a crime for me to speak against a politician or encourage people to dislike him. I hope you as my fellow Naija will not get that right taken away from you. I hope I can count on you to stand with me against those who wish to take our right to political dissent away. Arosa, My family will not vote GEJ, I incited their dislike for him. Most of my friends and acquintances will never vote PDP, I'm partly responsible for inciting their dislike. I incite dislike for PDP everywhere I go. The same way PDP supporters incite dislike for their opponents. Show me a law that says you and I can't exercise that right Sir, and I will show you an oppressive law. Now to your vandalism question; I'm not sure what the city code is in Sokoto. Most serious societies have laws against Vandalism, Graffitti and co. Serious societies also have laws against placing campaign Ad posters on public properties and monuments. I believe a public roundabout is a public property. Violating a "Post No Bill" code and spray painting an Ad poster are both Vandalism. So, if you wanna go legal, GEJ campaign handlers are probably violating a law that the police chose to ignore. 1 Like |

obailala: Thank God you gave yourself an out before making such an ignorant submission. There is no law in Nigeria against defacing posters. Posters are defaced everywhere in the world and it's only here in 9ja that we have people being arrested for it and in addition of trumped up charges of "insiting dislike for GEJ". Buhari's posters have been defaced by PDP thugs, abeg tell us how many of such thugs GEJ don pick up. That's the second cleric GEJ has picked up in as many months. The people are watching! |

I know this Imam. His mosque is situated inside GSS, Farfaru, Sokoto, which was used as our camp during our NYSC year. I have prayed Friday Juma'at under him in the past. In all honesty though, I do not expect someone of his status in the society to be defacing anybody's posters. |
Re: Imam (Sheikh Abubakar Jibrin) Arrested For Defacing Jonathan's Poster. by obailala(m): 9:20am On Mar 03, 2011 |
9ijaMan: Posters are defaced everywhere in the world and so does that makes it right? Take note, I used the word offense and not crime. Assuming you own a new business (be it a church, school, whatever) and you paste posters allover town for public sensitization. Then just a day after you paste posters, someone (probably a competitor) pays some small street kids to go allover town and rip off your posters. Do you really think there is nothing the law says about such an act? GEJ team might be wrong for targeting those ripping his posters alone but I hate it when people just come out and say thrash that "there is nothing wrong in defacing posters" |

obailala: Sorry Bro, the laws simply say nothing about that. You are a Nigerian and should have access to the constitution of the Nation. If in doubt, talk to a lawyer. Since the Imam has not violated any Nigerian law, why the arrest? No one as said nothing is wrong with poster defacing, the argument is simple: does poster defacing amount to any crime against any law of the land? In you funny example above, so the owners of the church, school or whatever will now go and engage the services of police to arrest anyone who defaces their posters? Is defacing of posters wrong? Yes. Does defacing of posters constitute a criminal offense? NO GEJ continues to exhibit the the same traits of the deposed tyrants Egypt and Tunisia, where anyone who speaks against the government is simply arrested. We had a deputy Imam picked up earlier in the year, then Okey Ndibe was harrased at the airport in Lagos and now another cleric has been picked. In case you are not aware, the only common thing amongst these people is that they all spoke against GEJ's government. If this is not tyranny, then I don't know the meaning of the word. oyb: Apparently they don't. |
